Below is a letter that I wrote to all my friends about the launch of www.northpointonline.tv on Aug. 16th at 6pm EST...And you're my friends too so you should read it and then join me...
And, here's a brief look at what we'll be watching/listening to....
I truly hope that this email finds everyone doing well in your respective locations. Things in the ATL are great and the married life is treating me well. Time certainly flies by as Amanda and I celebrated our one year anniversary over a month ago. Craziness I tell ya…
So, I’ll cut right to the chase…You’re my friend and I want you to join me at church on Sunday. That’s as clear cut as it comes. But I know some of you are thinking, “Hey Jonathon, I live in California or Vegas or Michigan or Texas or Louisiana or Chicago (or you name the city) and I really don’t see myself coming to Atlanta this weekend”. Or “Hey Jonathon, I live in Atlanta and you invite me and I’ve told you several times that I’m not into it.” Or “Hey Jonathon, you know my beliefs and you know they don’t line up with yours, so put down that crack pipe you’re smoking?” Or maybe it’s some other question…Nonetheless, I have the answer for all of them…It doesn’t matter…
And why you ask????
Well, let me tell you why…
Buckhead Church (www.buckheadchurch.org), the church Amanda and I have been a part of for a few years is launching a brand new live online service (www.northpointonline.tv) at 6pm EST this Sunday August 16th. That means, regardless of where you live, as long as you have a computer with internet connection, you can join me. I’ll be in person there during the actual service and if you’re watching, it’s like we are there together. Cause it's live...Not recorded...But live...Maybe we can shoot a text or tweet back and forth to really form that bond…The possibilities are endless…So, no Sunday’s best, just you and your computer sitting in your chonies watching some incredibly awesome music and hearing a life changing message…
And I know there are several on this email that have totally different beliefs than me on this whole church thing and I honestly and sincerely understand. Regardless of our differences, we are still bros. But, I can say from the bottom of my heart that the message you will hear will be none like anything you have ever heard. It’s not the if you drink a beer you’ll go to hell stuff. It's not old ladies with funny hats. It's not old hymns being sung by grandmas...I promise you that it's not....It’s relevant, it’s applicable, it’s real and it’s potentially life changing. And once again, all you have to do is take up some bandwidth on Sunday afternoon in the comfort of your own home. So has they say in St. Lucia, “No pressure, no problems.”
So…Recap…
1) You’re my friend
2) You should join me on Sunday at 6pm EST at www.northpointonline.tv
3) That’s 3pm EST
4) That’s 5pm CST
5) And something else for Mountain Time but they’re kind of weird with their whole time change thing so you’ll have to figure it out…
6) And if you’re up to it, shoot me an email or text to let me know what you thought

You guys shred and I miss all of you who I don’t get to see very often…
Your Red Headed Friend,
Jonathon
